David De Gea wants to leave Manchester United this summer (Picture:Getty)

David De Gea feels his position at Manchester United is ‘untenable’ after a breakdown in his relationship with manager Louis van Gaal, according to reports.

The 24-year-old is desperate to join Real Madrid this summer but, with the Red Devils holding out for a world record fee, the two clubs are in a stalemate when it comes to negotiations.

The Spaniard has just one year remaining on his deal at Old Trafford and, having won player of the year in each of the last two seasons, Van Gaal is determined to keep the former Atletico Madrid man at the club.

However, United’s failure to grant De Gea his wish has had an adverse effect on the pair’s relationship and the Daily Mirror says the Spaniard ‘simply doesn’t get on’ with the Red Devils boss.
